Equipment

We record with gear our founders lend and gear people in greater Peoria give.

What we need

[Wishlist from the gear inventory]

Lending gear

We borrow gear too, under a written agreement on who insures and repairs it. [Loan terms]

How giving gear works

  1. 01

    Check the list, then write to us: [email address].

  2. 02

    We look it over. If we can’t use it, we’ll say so, and with your permission pass it on or sell it.

  3. 03

    We describe it, but we don’t value it. For a dollar value, get your own appraisal.
